Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1044755A2] A laser treatment apparatus includes an aiming light optical system (9-16) for delivering an aiming light to an intended affected part, a laser irradiation mechanism including a laser source (1) for emitting a laser beam for treatment and an irradiation optical system (2-4, 7-9, 13-16) for delivering the treatment laser beam emitted from the laser source to the affected part, a focal shift mechanism (8, 43, 86) for shifting a focal point of the treatment laser beam from a focal point of the aiming light, a position setting mechanism (41, 50, 57, 90, 90a, 90b, 91) for changeably setting an initial focal point of the treatment laser beam to a desired point, a command signal input mechanism (105a, 57, 90, 90a, 90b, 91) for inputting a command signal to change the focal point of the treatment laser beam to the initial point, and a control unit (40) for controlling the focal shift mechanism to change the focal point of the treatment laser beam to the set initial point in response to the input command signal. <IMAGE>
